[Ontbirds]Hoary Redpoll in Branchton

[Paul Eagles]

Folks,

 

Today, Saturday December 29, a Hoary Redpoll appeared at our feeder in
Branchton. It was seen foraging with a very large flock of Common Redpoll,
half a dozen Dark-eyed Juncos and a few Tree Sparrows. The feeder is at 37
Hughson Street in Branchton. Branchton is on Branchton Road 4 km south of
the Highway 8/Branchton Road intersection in Cambridge, Ont. It looks to be
C. h. exilipes in plumage; however it was much larger than the Common
Redpolls.
